Ruth Ross to Undergo Surgery Today

....  Monday, October 12, 2009
 

KMSHA’s registrar and office manager, Ruth Ross, suffered a seizure during setup on Wednesday evening prior to KMSHA’s International Grand Championship.    As a result, Ruth will undergo shoulder surgery on Monday, October 12.    The family wishes to express their sincere thanks to all who have offered prayers and are keeping them in their thoughts during this difficult time.  A special thanks to Judy Brummer, who’s quick thinking and actions during the incident will no doubt contribute to Ruth’s quick recovery. 

Anyone who calls the KMSHA Office knows Ruth, or “Miss Ruth”, as many of our callers address her.  Ruth’s good humor and desire to help everyone make her the “go to” person at KMSHA.  Her countless hours of dedication and work during the International was tremendous to it’s success.  As she puts it,  “the membership deserves the best we can give it.”

We know many of you will want to send cards and flowers to Ruth, however, the family has asked that you address all cards to the KMSHA office.  The office staff will make sure she receives them.  For any flowers or other deliveries, please hold off until we have an address for you to send those.  Understandably, with surgery and physical therapy to follow, Ruth will not be able to accept phone calls for some time (and it is probably a good thing that she can’t get near a computer too!)     

Ruth put together an awesome 2009 International, and while she was not able to be there during the event, she was there in soul.  We wish to thank the Judges for their knowledge, patience and understanding without which this show could not have been a success. We want to thank all of the sponsors, staff, volunteers and exhibitors for being at the show.  Updates will be posted on at www.kmsha.com as they become available.  Thank you for being so understanding in regards to the wishes of her family and we are well aware how much Ruth will be missed during her recovery period. 

Send your cards and wishes to: 

Ruth Ross
